Ah, my favourite topic makes a return... Shannow Send a noteboard - 11/12/2011 07:45:29 AM
There are in fact a lot of indications that Moghedien is significantly weaker than the other female Forsaken.

To name a few:

Moghedien and Nynaeve are exactly equal in strength at a time when Nynaeve is still far from her full potential. And yet, it has been confirmed to us that at full potential, Nynaeve and Semirhage will be virtually equal in strength.

This means that the difference between Nynaeve's partial strength at the time when she is still blocked and untrained in Book 4, and Nynaeve's full potential, which still had not reached as late as Book 7 or 8, is equal to the difference between Moghedien and Semirhage.

Furthermore, we know that above Nynaeve's ful potential strength, you still have Alivia who is considerably stronger than Nynaeve, as well as Sharina.

It is therefore clear that there is a big gap from Moghedien to Semirhage's level, and then a somewhat significant gap from Semirhage's to Lanfear's level.

Yes, you are probably correct Sidious - 12/12/2011 06:26:07 AM 979 Views
Re: and some of the information given to us is flawed Watcher - 12/12/2011 07:38:59 PM 785 Views
The real question is - What percentage of her full strength did Nynaeve achieve by Book 4? Shannow - 12/12/2011 08:31:30 PM 812 Views
I find that unlikely Sidious - 12/12/2011 09:28:07 PM 778 Views
Easy question for you: Based on the evidence, what percentage of her strength was Nynaeve at in tSR? Shannow - 13/12/2011 07:09:56 AM 789 Views
Well.... Sidious - 13/12/2011 01:12:48 PM 811 Views

Alivia may not even be stronger than Nynaeve... fionwe1987 - 14/12/2011 03:14:06 AM 869 Views
That wouldn't surprise me actually *NM* Sidious - 14/12/2011 07:46:47 AM 438 Views
Where would you place Egwene though? fionwe1987 - 14/12/2011 09:13:46 AM 776 Views

The same "step" you refer to seperates Egwene from normal Aes Sedai according to RJ... Shannow - 14/12/2011 07:14:55 PM 745 Views
Yes! And...? fionwe1987 - 15/12/2011 02:53:37 AM 766 Views
Yes I would agree with that Sidious - 14/12/2011 08:24:35 PM 905 Views

I think it was just Aes Sedai hyperbole RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2011 09:51:00 PM 642 Views
And entirely based off your shared assumption. Fanatic-Templar - 14/12/2011 05:15:51 AM 844 Views
Actually that's a lot of logical assumption. *NM* LadyLorraine - 13/12/2011 01:28:00 PM 376 Views

Nah. Beyond the realm of possibility. Sorry, Shannow - 13/12/2011 05:12:40 PM 865 Views
There are a number of comments from Q&As that shows that this is possible and more complex. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 13/12/2011 08:23:49 PM 839 Views
None of which I disagree with, but a far cry from women being weaker just due to believing it... Shannow - 13/12/2011 08:39:40 PM 742 Views
But that is my point: it wouldn't be merely force of will. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 13/12/2011 09:40:17 PM 730 Views
What Rand is doing... fionwe1987 - 14/12/2011 03:43:08 AM 848 Views
That would make sense given Min's vision RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/12/2011 04:37:56 PM 657 Views

Might assume that Elayne is stronger in the Power than Aviendha. echooff - 19/12/2011 02:40:46 PM 1009 Views
I suspect he knows that... fionwe1987 - 19/12/2011 05:53:00 PM 730 Views
Nope...some maths problems in your post. Shannow - 19/12/2011 07:41:29 PM 766 Views
But 64 square feet is not Elayne's maximum... fionwe1987 - 20/12/2011 02:46:50 AM 723 Views
